That's nice to hear! Please keep us updated about your social interactions and how they are affected by your new height. That'd be so interesting to read about how your size actually changes stuff for you now (even if it's only mentally).
Wish you all the best!
Thanks alittletooshort. I def will.
I actually just got in from "walking" (if you can call it that) outside. I can only do like half a block before I need to partially use my crutches, because it's still pretty tiring for me. I'm not sure if I should be focusing more on just walking a lot, or focusing on my form (not waddling like a penguin, which requires more effort on my part at the moment). Frustrating, but I know it'll get better in time. Even though I kinda wanted to lengthen a bit more, I can kinda see how maybe stopping per the doctor's orders may have been best. Recovery from the surgery is no joke.
I do notice that when I size up men who are walking towards me (and me, them), now even when they seem pretty tall from far away (and would almost always "beat" me when they actually got to me), I find that I'm beating and/or tying a good amount of them

I'm really happy for you my friend. enjoy your newheight! it was a lot of hard work and dedication on your part.
Remember, you can always experiment with gluco if you want to squeeze out an extra CM, but you have already made a great improvement. Just try to enjoy what you have already done for a while and be worry free.

Thank you very much! I can't wait to be walking better...I imagine I have a few weeks left of the penguin waddle. lol
If I'm being honest, I guess sometimes I get a bit jealous because some of you guys have really great starting heights (and *cough* don'tneedLL *cough* ), but we all want to be the best we can be, and I understand that. I have other things going for me, so I think my new height will be fine.
My doctor and PT seem to think I may get up to .5cm from fixing my duckass (which still looks the same), so that would be pretty cool. I'd love to squeeze out another cm in the future without LL lol
I am definitely noticeably taller in the morning. Haven't measured my morning height (I seem to be at 5'8" on the dot right before bed time)...but I've noticed that I can fully see over the refrigerator top first thing in the AM, but not so much later on. Weird how noticeable that is to me! If taking gluco/yoga/rolfings would help me maintain some of my morning height, that would be pretty sweet.
On another note, my legs are so tired today...but gotta keep walkin'!
How has total recovery been going? Do you still have a duck ass? Is there still lingering pain from the procedure?
I am set to get the procedure done next year with Dr. Paley and I wanted to know is there really immense pain during the lengthening phase, mainly? After how long does the pain become bearable? Besides shyshy is there someone that you know personally that want through procedure with you that is back to at least 90%?

I only have some pain now after walking for a while, but it's getting better. I still walk like a penguin, but that's slowly improving too. Clicking was only painful for me around 7cm mark, it was never really painful before that. I had some bad knee pain throughout the lengthening process, but it's all gone now more or less.
And yes, I still have duckass, I probably will for a few more weeks at least.
Just outta curiosity, I measured my out of bed height this morning at around 5'8.8" or something. Close to 5'9," that's kinda cool. Makes sense, because of my bedtime height seems to be just over 5'8" at 5'8.15". Pretty sure I'm measuring properly (Looking in a mirror, standing straight while looking forward, holding a box directly over my head, making sure the box isn't tilted, and making a line beneath it). It would be cool if glucosamine and yoga/rolfing could help me maintain my morning height longer throughout the day.
Walking is slowly improving. Today I have pain in my right knee, I guess from walking without crutches. No worries. It'll get better. It has to, I have no choice!
